Abstract

A clip has: a clip main body; a holding portion that is provided at the clip main body, and that has a caught-on portion on which a protruding portion, that protrudes-out from an outer periphery of a linear member, a fastening rubber as an example, is caught, and the holding portion holds the protruding portion that is caught on the caught-on portion; an insert portion that is provided at the clip main body, and that is inserted into an insert hole formed in a mounted-to member, a lower panel as an example; and an anchor portion, a hook portion as an example, that is provided at the clip main body, and that is caught on an upper end portion of the lower panel from a same direction as a direction in which the protruding portion is caught on the caught-on portion.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A clip comprising:
 a clip main body;   a holding portion that is provided at the clip main body, and that has a caught-on portion on which a protruding portion, that protrudes-out from an outer periphery of a linear member, is caught, and that holds the protruding portion that is caught on the caught-on portion;   an insert portion that is provided at the clip main body, and that is inserted into an insert hole formed in a mounted-to member; and   an anchor portion that is provided at the clip main body, and that is caught on an anchored-on portion, formed at the mounted-to member, in a same direction as a catch direction in which the protruding portion is caught on the caught-on portion.   
     
     
         2 . The clip of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the mounted-to member is a panel member,   the anchored-on portion is an end portion of the panel member, and   the anchor portion is a hook portion having a shape that covers the end portion of the panel member from an obverse side to a reverse side.   
     
     
         3 . The clip of  claim 2 , further comprising a claw portion that is elastically deformable, and that projects-out from an outer periphery of the insert portion, the claw portion being inserted in the insert hole together with the insert portion in an elastically deformed state, and being caught on an edge portion of the insert hole by being restored from the deformed state. 
     
     
         4 . The clip of  claim 3 , wherein the insert portion is disposed further toward a side of the catch direction than the hook portion. 
     
     
         5 . The clip of  claim 4 , wherein the claw portion is elastically deformable toward the side of the catch direction. 
     
     
         6 . The clip of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the caught-on portion is configured to include a plate-shaped portion, and a cut-out portion that is formed in the plate-shaped portion, through which the linear member is inserted and at which the protruding portion is caught on an opening edge portion of the cut-out portion at a side opposite the catching direction side, and   the holding portion has a wall portion that is provided at the plate-shaped portion and restricts movement, in a direction orthogonal to the catching direction, of the protruding portion that is caught on the opening edge portion of the cut-out portion.   
     
     
         7 . The clip of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the caught-on portion is configured to include a plate-shaped portion, and a cut-out portion that is formed in the plate-shaped portion, through which the linear member is inserted and at which the protruding portion is caught on an opening edge portion of the cut-out portion at a side opposite the catching direction side, and   the holding portion has a wall portion that is provided at the plate-shaped portion and restricts movement, in a direction orthogonal to the catching direction, of the protruding portion that is caught on the opening edge portion of the cut-out portion.   
     
     
         8 . The clip of  claim 3 , wherein:
 the caught-on portion is configured to include a plate-shaped portion, and a cut-out portion that is formed in the plate-shaped portion, through which the linear member is inserted and at which the protruding portion is caught on an opening edge portion of the cut-out portion at a side opposite the catching direction side, and   the holding portion has a wall portion that is provided at the plate-shaped portion and restricts movement, in a direction orthogonal to the catching direction, of the protruding portion that is caught on the opening edge portion of the cut-out portion.   
     
     
         9 . The clip of  claim 4 , wherein:
 the caught-on portion is configured to include a plate-shaped portion, and a cut-out portion that is formed in the plate-shaped portion, through which the linear member is inserted and at which the protruding portion is caught on an opening edge portion of the cut-out portion at a side opposite the catching direction side, and   the holding portion has a wall portion that is provided at the plate-shaped portion and restricts movement, in a direction orthogonal to the catching direction, of the protruding portion that is caught on the opening edge portion of the cut-out portion.   
     
     
         10 . The clip of  claim 5 , wherein:
 the caught-on portion is configured to include a plate-shaped portion, and a cut-out portion that is formed in the plate-shaped portion, through which the linear member is inserted and at which the protruding portion is caught on an opening edge portion of the cut-out portion at a side opposite the catching direction side, and   the holding portion has a wall portion that is provided at the plate-shaped portion and restricts movement, in a direction orthogonal to the catching direction, of the protruding portion that is caught on the opening edge portion of the cut-out portion.   
     
     
         11 . The clip of  claim 1  further comprising a concave portion that is formed in the clip main body such that a part of the protruding portion is accommodated in the concave portion in a state in which the protruding portion is caught on the caught-on portion. 
     
     
         12 . The clip of  claim 10  further comprising a concave portion that is formed in the clip main body such that a part of the protruding portion is accommodated in the concave portion in a state in which the protruding portion is caught on the caught-on portion. 
     
     
         13 . The clip of  claim 1  further comprising a linear member holding portion that is formed at an outer side portion of the holding portion, and that holds the linear member. 
     
     
         14 . The clip of  claim 10  further comprising a linear member holding portion that is formed at an outer side portion of the holding portion, and that holds the linear member.
